The contract, identified as CON 1426, falls under the industry category "Survey design services" (CPV: 79311100) and was officially awarded on 14 August 2024. The project will be executed primarily in the regions of England and Wales within the United Kingdom.

The contract period is set from 15 August 2024 to 14 August 2027.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses that specialise in survey design and software development, particularly those with capabilities in cloud-based solutions and automated data handling. SMEs and VCSEs may not find this opportunity tailored to them, but large-scale companies with robust technological frameworks and experience in delivering customisable survey solutions would be well-suited to compete in such procurements. The awarded supplier, SMARTSURVEY LTD, reflects the need for well-established firms capable of meeting Ofsted's stringent requirements for scalability and customisation.
